Different levels of living:
-Survival-
Just exist because we exist. Living life because we live. To somehow scrape pass a day.
-Success-
Strife for survival. Not just living because we exist. Achieving. We are created not only to survive, but to succeed and know why we exist. Knowing the reason for why we exist.
What do we live for? (Luke 18:18-27) Why do we exist?
What is the point of having eternal life if it is a life of suffering? Eternal life = Living life to the fullest.
How do I get life in its fullest? It is not found in performance/achievements/ability/experience
(Ecclesiastes 4:4)
God wants us to excel and is happy when we do so.
God is proud of us when we do our best, reaching out to our own potential.
There is not a need to impress god, as he knows us inside out.
I do not have to be the best, but I just have to be MY BEST.
The purpose of life cannot be found in our possession nor doings. We often mix things up.
Money is not evil, when it is in our hands. It is only evil when it consumes our hearts.
We always try to fill our hearts with desires and possessions. Fill our hearts with love and joy, not $$ ^^.
Things we possess will only excite us for a moment. We will never get satisfied of what we have.
(Ecclesiastes 3:11)
God planted eternity in our hearts. We can never find life purposes in what we possess nor actions. It can only be found within our creator. It cannot be achieved.
What is impossible with men is possible with god.
Eternal life is a gift from God.
1 - Revieve Jesus into our lives to find out the putpose of life. We will forget the purpose of life because of sin, which separates us from God. "ETERNAL DEATH". (John 3:16)
Our life in christ brings back that purpose into our lives. "Only life lived for others is worth living." "If you have never really loved, you have never really lived."
2 - Discover Gods' gift and direction
Love your life because of confidence that you are living with christ, taking every step with God and knowing we live in freedom and in the best plan god has for us. Life to the fullest is life with GOD. (Jeremiah 29:11)
